Parking Fees Doubled In Delhi Amid GRAP II, Pollution Woes — Check Rates

In line with the directions issued by the Commission for Air Quality Management (CAQM), the New Delhi Municipal Council (NDMC) has increased off-road and indoor parking charges to twice the existing rates, effective from Wednesday, until the revocation of Stage-II of the Graded Response Action Plan (GRAP).

According to the official notification, this revision applies only to off-street and indoor parking managed by NDMC, while on-street and monthly parking passes remain unaffected, as their existing rates are already on the higher side.

Revised Parking Charges During GRAP Stage-II

Under the revised structure, the parking fee for four-wheelers has been increased from ₹20 to ₹40 per hour, while two-wheeler charges have doubled from ₹10 to ₹20 per hour. Similarly, indoor parking for cars will now cost ₹20 per hour (up from ₹10), and scooters will be charged ₹10 per hour, instead of ₹5. Bus parking charges are now ₹300 per hour.

The NDMC said the decision was made in “compliance with the CAQM order” as part of Delhi’s emergency response to worsening air quality under GRAP Stage-II.

According to Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) data released on Wednesday morning, air quality levels in Delhi continued to remain between ‘very poor’ and ‘poor’ categories at several monitoring stations.
